CSE209 Lab Report 6

The report details an experiment conducted to verify Thevenin's theorem through theoretical, experimental, and PSpice simulation methods. The results showed close agreement between the experimental values of load voltage and current and those calculated using Thevenin's equivalent circuit, with minor discrepancies attributed to measurement errors and component tolerances. Overall, the experiment confirmed the validity of Thevenin's theorem in simplifying and analyzing electrical circuits.

Experiment Title: Verification of Thevenin’s theorem.

Experiment objectives:

1. To verify the Thevenin’s theorem theoretically, experimentically and using PSpice simulation

Circuit Diagram:

Equipments and Components Needed:


1.DC Power Supply
2. Trainer Board
3. Multimeter
4. DC Ammeter
5. resistors (three 1k, one 4.7k, one 3.3k)
6. Decade Resisting Box
7. Breadboard
8. Connecting Wires
Experimental Datasheet:
Solution to Post-Lab Report Questions:
1. Using the circuit information that provide in the data sheet:
Eth=7.1V
Rth =11.64k Ohm
RL=0.98 k Ohm
Rl
We know, VL= 𝑅𝑙+𝑅𝑡ℎ + *Eth = 3.24

Calculate Voc and Isc:


Voc= Eth=7.1V
𝑉𝑜𝑐
∴ Isc= 𝑅𝑡ℎ =7.2 mA

Verification of Thevenin’s theorem:


Measured VL=3.2V
Measured IL=3.28 mA
3.24−3.20
Calculate percentage of error of voltage= *100 = 1.23 %
3.24
3.28−3.25
Calculate percentage of error of current= *100 = 0.92 %
3.25

2. Comparison:
There is a significant discrepancy between the measured and calculated values of VL and IL. This
could be due to Measure errors, incorrect assumption or approximation during theoretical
calculations, Circuit components tolerance affecting values of resistors or voltage source.

3. PSpice Simulation
Conclusion:
Thevenin’s theorem was successfully verified in this experiment. The complex network of resistors
and voltage sources was reduced to an equivalent circuit consisting of a single voltage source
(VthV_{th}) in series with a single resistance (RthR_{th}). The experimental values of the load
voltage and current obtained from the Thevenin equivalent circuit were found to be in close
agreement with the values measured from the original circuit. This demonstrates that Thevenin’s
theorem is a valid and reliable method for simplifying electrical circuits and analyzing their
behavior.
